Biography

For over 40 years, I have been learning, practicing, and teaching industrial design, often at the same time. Honored as a Fulbright Senior Scholar in 2015 and currently Professor of Industrial Design at the University of Kansas, I have also taught full-time at Auburn University and Carrington Technical Institute in Auckland, New Zealand. Additionally, I have taught short courses at Konstfackskolan in Stockholm and been a visiting professor at Staffordshire University in Stoke-on-Trent, England, Halmstad University in Sweden, and the Indian Institute of Technology-Bombay in Mumbai, India. My design research has been supported by private and public grants, and findings presented at national and international design conferences and institutions. For several years I have been using my experience as both teacher and practitioner of design to serve as an expert witness in design patent infringement and product liability cases. I was one of “133 Distinguished Industrial Design Professionals and Professors” to sign the Amicus Brief supporting Apple in its case against Samsung before the Supreme Court. Working alone or in collaboration with other professionals, I have designed numerous commercial products, consumer products, aircraft and boat interiors, graphics, packaging, and exhibits. I was chosen by the editors at ID Magazine chose as one of the “Design 50”. Recently, my research efforts have been focused toward using design to create sustainable craft-based enterprises in rural communities in the US, Africa, and India.

Design Work in Bamboo Designer

Abari Bamboo Bike, (May 2016 – April, 2017). Design and development of a new generation bamboo bicycle initially designed and prototyped at the Abari architecture studio in Kathmandu, Nepal in April, 2016 as part of my Fulbright research. Mass Production Bamboo Bicycle for Bikeshare System, IIT-Bombay Campus, Mumbai, India, (February 2016 – April, 2017). Most bamboo bicycles use labor intensive and expensive in fabrication. This bike was designed to be easily, quickly, and reliably manufactured in large numbers. It was also designed to be easily repaired and adjusted in the field.

Sidekick, Lance G Rake, HERObike, Greensboro, AL. (September, 2015- February, 2016) I designed the Sidekick Balance Bike for HERO, a not-for-profit located in Greensboro, AL, as a way to create quality craft-based jobs. Most of my design work for HERO explores the use of bamboo- a local resource in rural Alabama. The Sidekick is designed for easy fabrication in the Greensboro workshop. The Sidekick was further developed and prototyped in India at the Industrial Design Center at the Indian Institute of Technology-Bombay in Mumbai in spring, 2016 as part of my Fulbright research.

Sidekick Senior, Lance G Rake, IIT-B, IDC, Mumbai, India (January, 2016- May, 2016) I designed the Sidekick Senior at the Industrial Design Center at the Indian Institute of Technology-Bombay in Mumbai in spring, 2016 as part of my Fulbright research. I leveraged the simplicity of design of the Sidekick Balance bike to create a pedal-powered version with 20” wheels.

Inframe Storage System, Lance G Rake, HERObike, IIT-B, IDC, Mumbai, India (January, 2016- May, 2016) The Inframe Storage System is a woven bamboo basket designed to ride inside the main triange structure of a commuter-style bicycle. It was designed at the Industrial Design Center at the Indian Institute of Technology-Bombay in Mumbai in spring, 2016 to create job opportunities for rural and urban bamboo craftsmen in India as part of my Fulbright research.

Whalebone Stand Up Paddleboard, Lance G Rake, HERObike, Greensboro, AL. (June 2014 - July 2015) I designed the Whalebone Stand Up Paddleboard for HERO, a not-for-profit located in Greensboro, AL, as a way to create quality craft-based jobs. Most of my design work for HERO explores the use of bamboo- a local resource in rural Alabama. The Whalebone is an innovative skin-on-frame design that uses an inexpensive but strong structure made of laser cut cardboard and bamboo strips. Whalebone was designed to be made in weekend workshops in the Greensboro workshop.

Beacon Alley Skateboards, Lance G Rake, HERObike Greensboro, Alabama. (January 2013 - December 2014) I designed the Beacon Alley Skateboard for HERO, a not-for-profit located in Greensboro, Alabama, as a way to create quality craft-based jobs. Most of my design

Lance Rake, IDSA 9


work for HERO explores the use of bamboo- a local resource in rural Alabama. The skateboard is a bamboo composite design.

Semester Bicycles, Lance G Rake, HERObike Greensboro, Alabama. (January 2012 - February 2014) I designed the Semester Bike for HERO, a not-for-profit located in Greensboro, Alabama, as a way to create quality craft-based jobs. Most of my design work for HERO explores the use of bamboo- a local resource in rural Alabama. The Semester is a bamboo composite design.

Flatpack Bicycle, Lance G Rake, HERObike Greensboro, Alabama. (August 2012 - February 2013) (Invited) I designed the Flatpack Bike for HERO, a not-for-profit located in Greensboro, Alabama, as a way to create quality craft-based jobs. Most of my design work for HERO explores the use of bamboo- a local resource in rural Alabama. The Flatpack is a bamboo composite design that also uses waterjet cut aluminum panels. The entire bicycle arrives in a small box and can be easily assembled with minimal tools. The Flatpack was shown in the North American Handmade Bicycle Show in Charlotte, NC in March, 2013.

Woven Tube Road Bike, Lance G Rake, HERObike Greensboro, Alabama. (August 2012 - February 2013) (Invited) I designed the Woven Tube Bike for HERO, a not-for-profit located in Greensboro, Alabama, as a way to create quality craft-based jobs. Most of my design work for HERO explores the use of bamboo- a local resource in rural Alabama. The Woven Tube bike is an innovative bamboo/carbon fiber composite that is extremely lightweight. The Woven Tube Road Bike was shown in the North American Handmade Bicycle Show in Charlotte, NC in March, 2014.
